The word “‘Floribunda”’ is used to refer to bush Roses producing clusters of blooms without 
interruption from early summer until late frosts. They were formerly referred to as “bedding 
Roses” for mass color effect rather than for specimen blooms. 
The Floribunda class, therefore, includes new as well as old varieties of large-flowered or 
Hybrid Polyanthas, and possibly a few Hybrid Teas. They are all very easy to grow and 
exceptionally hardy. Besides using them informally in Rose beds, plant Floribundas in per- 
manent groups for color in the foreground of hardy shrub borders. 
The day is here when more and more Floribunda Roses are being used for straightline 
border or hedge planting instead of the more common privet or barberry. These Roses provide 
good foliage, utility—plus—constant color. 
PLANTING DISTANCE: Average 15 to 18 inches. 
HEIGHT: Average 24 to 30 inches. 
PRUNING: Prune lightly to desired height removing old cluster heads and thin out dead wood. 
Floribunda and Polyantha Roses should be 
planted in groups of at least three each. Since 
it is generally understood they are for mass color 
effect rather than individual specimen blooms, 
when planting only one of a kind.
